“…Meanwhile, Van Schalkwyk, Els, and Rothmann (2011) found a positive relationship between exposure to workplace bullying strategies from supervisors and colleagues and turnover intention (r= .28 & .21, p< .01, respectively) in a convenience sample of 13, 911 employees. Razzaghian and Ghani (2014) found that workplace bullying accounts for 20.4% variation on turnover intention in a sample of 207 faculty members of different private universities. Moreover, there are some studies in which examined the long-term effects of exposure to workplace bullying on turnover intention; for example, Glambek et al (2014) conducted a longitudinal study in which they examined if exposure to workplace bullying has an effect on turnover intention and if this effect persists for a long period of time.…”

Statement of the Problem: One of the great challenges for organizations today is the retention of valuable human resources because this is essential to them for being globally competitive and one of the factors that can exacerbate turnover intention is the exposure to workplace bullying. Purpose: The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the effect of exposure to psychological harassment on the intention to give up employment and how job satisfaction, work engagement and burnout mediate the relationship between exposure to workplace bullying and turnover intention. Method: A cross-sectional/correlational design was used and a total of 1,046 employees were surveyed. We used the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to examine the hypotheses of the study. Results: The results suggest that exposure to workplace bullying has a direct effect on the turnover intention. In addition, it was found that job satisfaction, work engagement and burnout mediated the relationship between exposure to workplace bullying and turnover intention. Discussion: Exposure to workplace bullying can make victims consider giving up their jobs as a form of coping. Employees' turnover has an extremely high organizational cost in terms of recruiting and training new staff.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of bullying and perceived social support among students in Peshawar, Pakistan. METHODOLOGY: It was a cross-sectional descriptive survey, conducted in different private and government sector schools, colleges and universities of Peshawar (November2019-February 2020). A total of 1000 students participated in the study. We employed a stratified sampling technique and selected a proportion of students from every academic year. Female students aged 15-24 were included in the study. Informed consent was taken from the students and the concerned authorities of the institutes. A questionnaire was designed to assess the prevalence of bullying behavior and the availability of perceived social support. Pre-testing of the questionnaire was performed on 10% of the population. The obtained data were analyzed in SPSS version 21. RESULTS: The prevalence of bullying was more in university students as compared to college and school students. Similarly, most of the private sector students were the victims of bullying. Family and friends were highly perceived as social support. CONCLUSION: A multidisciplinary approach involving affected children, their parents, school personnel, media, non-governmental organizations, and security units are required to achieve an effective approach for the prevention of violence targeting children in schools as victims and/or perpetrators.

“…(Duarte & Pinto‐Gouveia, ; Duarte, Pinto‐Gouveia, & Cruz, ). Bullying behaviour can also lead to turnover and intent to leave (Blackstock, Harlos, Macleod, & Hardy, ; Hayward, Bungay, Wolff, & MacDonald, ; Malik, Sattar, Shahzad, & Faiz, ; Razzaghian & Ghani, ). While these findings linking negative characteristics to bullying are not unique to this study, they strongly support the continued need for hospital and nursing leadership to improve the work environment.…”

Aim To evaluate horizontal violence and bullying in the nursing workforce of an oncology inpatient and outpatient academic centre and to test the Horizontal Violence Scale in an outpatient setting. Background Horizontal violence (HV) and bullying in the workplace are dysfunctional behaviours that can affect nursing staff and patient care. The impact of bullying and HV is multilevel, affecting patient safety and satisfaction, nursing retention and employee satisfaction, while creating poor patient outcomes. Methods A quantitative cross‐sectional descriptive design was used to examine prevalence of HV and bullying and the relationship between HV and bullying of nursing department personnel in an oncology setting. Results The study findings revealed significant positive relationships between bullying and HV in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Conclusion Nurses experience diverse workplace violence, which could decrease their professional quality of life and affect their turnover intention no matter the work setting. Implications for nursing management The findings of this study clearly link the presence of bullying and HV, which includes, emotional, physical, verbal and defiant behaviours to both inpatient and outpatient workplace settings. A positive organisational culture, which can be shaped by nursing leaders, can create a work environment that can thwart workplace violence.
